I don't watch Raw much but it doesn't seem to be that Legacy are being pushed as being too dominant. I mean a lot of their wins are cheap and last week they lost to a team whose average age is like 50. I think it would be much better if there was a face stable (no, not the current DX) and we could have a decent feud like DX/Nation.

I just hope with the Ted DiBiase angle doesn't go exactly the same as the Orton/Evolution one.

Many within WWE feel its doubtful that Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson would agree to guest host a future edition of Monday Night Raw. One would assume WWE would reach out to him if they haven't already, but people close to him believe he'd pass on the offer. While Johnson speaks positively towards WWE in the media, the reality is he wants to disassociate himself with his former employer and still harbors some bad feelings over the way they allowed his contract to expire at the end of 2004.

During an appearance on the Bubba the Love Sponge radio show Thursday morning, Hulk Hogan personally told Kurt Angle they should work a program together in TNA with Angle putting the "red, white, and blue" back on and turning face. The Olympic gold medalist concurred and said he could make it happen.

During Hogan's in-studio appearance alongside Brian Knobs, Bubba called Angle to discuss wrestling and women with the WWE Hall of Famer. After Hogan and Angle discussed the idea of Hogan coming to the organization to "turn this thing around," Bubba called TNA president Dixie Carter, but received her voice-mail. Bubba then played fantasy booker by laying out an elaborate plan the two could work in TNA, with both approving.

Bubba later trashed TNA creative writer Vince Russo, naming him the "cancer of the wrestling industry." Hogan added he hasn't seen Russo since the day "Russo was fired from WCW." As many of you know, Hogan and Russo aren't exactly on the greatest terms considering Hogan felt Russo double-crossed him and went into business for himself during an infamous incident at the Bash at the Beach pay-per-view in 2000.

Hogan's radio show appearance was not without WWE discussion as he re-told the story of getting ready to face John Cena at WrestleMania earlier this year, but being forced to cancel as a result of back surgery.

That couldn't be bothered to offer him an extension to stay, they would of rather just let him go

That was the biggest mistake WWE made and I am sure they are repenting it now as they will welcome The Rock anytime in WWE, and in any terms may be.

Yeah may be Hogan is warming himself before going to WWE.

The "WWE Pay Per View" section on DirecTV's website features a listing of all WWE talent and happens to include a current TNA star. The listing reads, "DIRECTV Pay Per View delivers the force, fury and finishing moves of superstars like Triple H, Batista, Matt Hardy, The Big Show, Randy Orton, and Sting."

:rofl:

I am surprised no one has mentioned this yet but maybe its because no one watches ROH but WWE have Nigel McGuiness and Bryan Danielson, these are 2 awesome talents which WWE will **** away for sure but they are good wrestlers.

I didn't mention it because WWE will just ruin them. CM Punk is the only indie guy I can think of who remotely had any decent success in WWE lately. I doubt McGuiness or Danielson will go anywhere but ECW to start with naturally.

As for Lita dating CM Punk, maybe this might be Lita's road back into WWE? But that would be really weird. What with Matt still there and Edge coming back eventually. We all remember what happened last time...

Plus, Bob Barker was awesome on RAW lol

I loled at this. :laugh:

Before Saturday's Smackdown house show at the Manuel Iguina Coliseum in Arecibo, Puerto Rico, the Big Show and The Great Khali got into a fight backstage. Apparently there has been heat there for some time, as Big Show feels that Khali uses moves that should be exclusive to Big Show as a giant.

According to several sources, there was said to have been some heat between the two even before the fight took place. This includes Show reportedly being upset with Khali using moves that he feels should be exclusive to him as a "giant" in WWE. As for the fight itself, the two were described as getting into an argument after a six man tag team match that night which featured The Undertaker, The Great Khali & Matt Hardy vs. WWE World Heavyweight Champion CM Punk & WWE Unified Tag Team Champions Chris Jericho & Big Show. One story said Khali botched the finish and Show called him out on it and they started grappling around.

Upon arriving backstage, The Big Show reportedly threw the first punch as one source described it. Khali blocked it (in what some described as the same exact way he does it in the ring) and the two began fighting. Show then slipped on something and went down leading to Khali jumping on top of him. At this point several wrestlers including The Undertaker broke it up and the crew was ordered at that point to keep them apart of the rest of the tour in Puerto Rico.

Among the wrestlers, the blame was being put on The Big Show for the incident.

As reported earlier today, Mickie James peculiarly missed Sunday night's Raw brand house show in Madison, Wisconsin after competing the two previous nights in St. Paul, Minnesota and Sioux Falls, South Dakota. She was also not used during Monday's Raw taping in Chicago. Partnering with Gail Kim, Kelly Kelly took her place in a tag match on Sunday. This should be taken with a grain of salt, but a person from the Richmond area claiming to have known James for over ten years e-mailed us to say that she busted one of her breast implants in a tag match with Rosa Mendes (and Beth Phoenix) over the weekend.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By grunger106 · Posted

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
    • I Can't Wrap My Head Around This Number - Google to buy computing from SpaceX at $920 million per month

      By Nick H. · Posted

      What I can't seem to understand is that Google are paying SpaceX? Surely it would be the other way round, with SpaceX needing Google's datacenters etc.? Oh well, this level of money and power is way outside of my comprehension at the best of times.
